A 75-year-old Utah man was convicted
Wednesday on federal charges he conspired with a Lehigh Valley doctor in
a scheme to defraud the Department of Health and Human Service and the Internal Revenue Service of hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Robert G. Wray
of Torrey, Utah, was found guilty of one count of conspiracy, 30 counts
of wire fraud, one count of bankruptcy fraud, and one count of failure
to appear.
As part of his defense, Wray argued he was
not properly identified in legal documents, however, he used many
different names for himself in an attempt to evade federal and other
laws, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office. Wray also claimed to be a
“sovereign” citizen, who is not subject to federal laws, including
those regarding personal income taxation.
The Utah man conspired with Dr. Dennis Erik Fluck Von Kiel,
of Macungie, Pa, to help the doctor evade a six-figure debt he owed to
HHS for unpaid medical school loans and avoid paying personal income
taxes to the IRS, the U.S. Attorney's Office said.
